KoiceReloaded:Were they came from? they're most likely extraterrestrials, just like in Battle of Los Angeles & Edge of Tomorrow. Well to me, the plot seems quite obvious. Mum, Daughter, Son, will go on a killing spree & share the idea of how to kill the monsters with the rest of the few survivals. The origin story might probably take up 5% & the remaining 95% will be them survivals running around & killing the monsters with some casualties here & there. All in all, I just want to be wrong about the above, cause it'd be a big let down if they ruin the good memory I've about the movie. |

mekaprime: The guy that wrote the first, also wrote the sequel, so it will have plot consistency, at the very least. |

Damfostopper:dunno if it's just me but i'm not just a fan of these Tom Holland spiderman movies. OK movies but I don't just get the feel as if I'm watching a spiderman movie... Tobey Maguire spiderman trilogy still remains the best imo.. even Andrew Garfield spiderman movies for all its faults felt independent.. This present spiderman movies feels too ironman-ish( dunno the right word to use) 3 Likes |

Singapore1: You're not alone in that light my brother. After downloading the movie, i was very much skeptic about seeing it, i thought it was going to flop, but men, am so glad it didn't. I enjoyed every bit of the movie & I've even archived it. |

KoiceReloaded: Fair enough, am keeping my fingers crossed. |
Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by kendrick93(m): 9:46pm On Sep 26, 2019 |
KoiceReloaded:Yeah......too much pandering to Tony Stark... Spiderman is my favourite comic book character.....is it too much to ask for an somewhat independent movie without the whole iron man godfatherism? Tobey Maguire spiderman 2 still remains the most accurate and enjoyable spiderman movie so far imo 5 Likes |
Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by Nobody: 9:51pm On Sep 26, 2019 |
kendrick93: Let's look at it this way: Tobey Maguire was better at being Spider-Man than Tom Holland, whilst Tom Holland is better at being Peter Parker than Tobey Maguire. 5 Likes |

Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by kendrick93(m): 9:57pm On Sep 26, 2019 |
KoiceReloaded:Couldn't have said it better.. Tom Holland physically is an accurate representation of spiderman. I will give him that.. |
Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by Damfostopper(m): 9:57pm On Sep 26, 2019 |
kendrick93:lol I get it...... The Old Spider Man was okay for me and Amazing Spiderman too...... I didn't like Homecoming.... I deleted it halfway...... |
Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by kendrick93(m): 10:01pm On Sep 26, 2019 |
Damfostopper:We all know Peter is smart and some what genius but we still haven't seen his capabilities, why should Stark babysit him even after his death... Even his web shooting surely Peter should be smart to have done it by himself. |
Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by mekaprime: 10:06pm On Sep 26, 2019 |
KoiceReloaded: I agree with you on the above. |
Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by Damfostopper(m): 10:08pm On Sep 26, 2019 |
kendrick93:lol maybe they are planning on merging "Stark" iron Man with spider Man......something like Iron spider lol...... Spiderman movie should solely revolve around Peter Parker.... but that's not the case... seems it's inter-woven courtesy of Marvel 1 Like |
Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by mekaprime: 10:10pm On Sep 26, 2019 |
kendrick93: Babysit you say? dude should be thankful to Stark for the exposure he got, if am not mistaken if not Stark he would have been just an ordinary friendly neighborhood in Queens NY. |
Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by Nova15: 10:15pm On Sep 26, 2019 |
Damfostopper: Of course it's interwoven. Stark is his mentor so that how it's supposed to be. |

How can someone sit down to watch Bird box then say that the concept is about parenthood. Is there another birdbox I don't know? 2 Likes |

mekaprime: Every good horror movie has a deeper meaning that goes beyond the terror itself. The justification for a sequel does not lie in the deeper meaning. I believe the justification for a horror movie is twofold 1. The evil spirit, monster, corporation, virus, system, person did not die 2. The protagonist or hero or main character did not have a .clear or good ending Closure. Bird Box fits both rules. First, the monsters were never explained and were never killed. Secondly, the main haracter did not truly get closure. The monsters are still out there and nothing stops them from sending the crazies to kill those who dont open their eyes (the blind guys) Also, it is your personal interpretation that the monsters were purely psychological. I fell that is 100 percent wrong. Not only were they drawn on paper, they had physical effects on people and also, they had crazies working for them. |
Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by mekaprime: 10:37pm On Sep 26, 2019 |
Clubmaster: Have you heard of the word Symbolism ? Are you ware of its applications to art & literature?? The monsters in the movie, did you for once lay your eyes on it?......I rest my case. |
Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by JeromeBlack: 10:37pm On Sep 26, 2019 |
Clubmaster: That is one of the secondary themes in the movie. |
Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by Nova15: 10:38pm On Sep 26, 2019 |
kendrick93: No, because of marvel. Spiderman has always been a marvel character, just that it's film rights is owned by Sony. Even in the comics and animations, Spiderman has always been a protege of Tony Stark. |
Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by oyaskii(m): 10:45pm On Sep 26, 2019 |
kendrick93:I concur...These Tom holland Spider -man movies feel somehow to me, the villian in Home coming was child's play....i for one will gladly like to see the end of this era of spiderman and thankfully sony and marvel are already doing justice to it. |
Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by kendrick93(m): 10:53pm On Sep 26, 2019 |
oyaskii:I swear...too amateurish. The first spidermans had much better villains like Harry Osbourne,green goblin,doctor octopus etc ..... |

https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/the-real-reason-you-never-see-the-monsters-in-netflixs-bird-box.html/ This is the best explanation of Birdbox I've seen. The monsters are personal. It echoed some of my opinions too. |

JeromeBlack: At the bolded, didn't say that. Trust me here, if the sequel of the movie comes out, there's no way its going to meet up with the standard set by the first movie. And when you say the hero didn't have a good ending, what other good ending is more befitting than the one we got? .. Firstly, what was our heroes goal?? The goal all along was getting her & the kids to a safe Haven & not stopping the crazies or pandemic. Did she achieve her goal?? Yes she did, to me, that's a befitting ending. Talking about killing the monsters, how can you kill something you can't see, for all we may not know, it may be a bio weapon. |

KoiceReloaded: Amongst WebRip, Web-DL and HDRip, which one has more quality? |
Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by Clubmaster: 8:58am On Sep 27, 2019 |
In order of quality... Web-DL, WebRip, HDRip. Beorn1: |
Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by abdurrazaq(m): 9:03am On Sep 27, 2019 |
Web-DL and WebRip are better than HDRip. There may be no significant difference between the 2 though |
